Question to the Department for International Development:

To ask Her Majesty’s Government what discussions have taken place with the government of Malawi and international institutions with regard to the recent floods in Malawi.

The UK continues to work closely within the coordination structures established by the Government of Malawi and the UN to ensure our support is part of a well-coordinated relief and recovery response.

The UK fully supports the efforts of the Malawian Department of Disaster Management Affairs and Ministry of Agriculture, Irrigation and Water Development. However, no UK funding is channelled directly through Government of Malawi systems.
